Building a proper underwater base in Subnautica 2 becomes one of the most important parts of progression once you move beyond simple survival. Your base eventually turns into your crafting hub, storage center, vehicle dock, farming station, and safe zone while exploring Proteus.
This guide lists every currently known Habitat Builder blueprint and recipe in simple list format so you can quickly find exactly what materials you need.
